  • What food did you hate in the past, but enjoy now?

    Jump

  • Pumpernickel & rye breads. Maybe it was the "brown bready thing must be chocolate" mentality of a kid or maybe just that it wasn't white bread. But damn if that isn't the most delicious shit for toast, bagels, and sandwiches.

    Hummus. I have some textural food aversions. Mushed up doesn't usually cut it and so I 100% judged hummus on its look and smell. I gave it a shot a couple of years ago and I can't get enough of it. It took me until I was like 45!

  • What book that hasn't been adapted into a TV show or movie do you think deserves an adaptation?

    Jump

  • This is what I was looking for. Sure, we have a crappy animated movie, but all I have ever wanted was to see the Heroes of the Lance in real life.

  • TIL about raisin juice concentrate - some truly Goldbergian food science

    Jump

  • Absolutely not a joke! I was eating some granola bar and noticed in the ingredient list. I thought it was some ridiculous labeling thing and had to look it up. The bit you quoted was what I figured it was, but it still sounds absurd on the surface.

    Jump

  • When I read the link, I immediately said to myself "Well, I guess it's just like prune juice." But that still doesn't mean it doesn't seem strange on paper.

    I plan on blowing my brains out soon.

  • They tell you your brain is broken and you'll never live a normal life without medication?

    I was seeing a counselor years back and she made this point to me. "If you had a heart condition that could be treated with medication, would you take it? What makes taking care of your brain different?" I was really the simple bit of logic I needed to hear. Luckily, the meds worked with only a couple minor increases over the years. Medication is absolutely an avenue worth exploring.

  • ‘Heroes’ Reboot In The Works From Series Creator Tim Kring

    Jump

  • If I get more Hiro, I'm happy. I was so excited to see his 5 seconds in Bullet Train.

  • Preparing a megathread about android FOSS apps - Part one (Contacts, SMS & Dialer)

    Jump

  • Question: What is your favorite Mexican restaurant around specific city?

    Response: Here is a list of all the restaurants in specific city.

    I don't think some polite pushback on that is unwarranted.

  • Started to move off Google (not strictly self-hosted)

    Jump

  • Okay, I'm following. So who would you recommend as an email provider?

  • Started to move off Google (not strictly self-hosted)

    Jump

  • I mean, that's going to be a risk you take with any hosted service. I currently self-host my contacts and calendar, but I have no interest in hosting my own email again.

    Jump

  • What Zoho plan are you using? I can't quite tell what the difference between the free and lite tiers is except for IMAP/POP support.

    I moved over to Proton earlier this year and have had a good experience so far, but I'm not married to it or anything.

    Rancid - Black Derby Jacket (2000)

  • What's the most believable cryptid story you've ever heard of?

    Jump

  • OMG (facepalm)

    If STATES existed outside of the United STATES, they would BE part of the United States. It's right there in the name. We own it.

    Do your own research.

    (end sarcasm)

  • What is your favorite movie, film, or show to watch this time of year, christmas or not?

    Jump

  • Muppet Christmas Carol and Muppet Family Christmas are the only things I'll still require my kids to watch with us every year. They're just the best.

  • The Refreshments - Banditos (1996) [Alternative Rock]

    Jump

  • I will always upvote The Refreshments. Those two albums are seriously underrated gems.

  • Concrete Blonde - Joey (Official Video)

    Jump

  • Her vocal on the chorus is so powerful. The whole performance is heartbreaking and beautiful.

  • Any company that still insists on forced password resets and frequent changes needs to learn about Social Engineering and Human Factors.

    Jump

  • Maintain security by changing passwords every day. Easy.

  • [Thread] Recommend me devastatingly sad songs? Please?

    Jump

  • Lots of loss in my family in the last 10 years or so. As a result things like this are the most devastating for me. These two in particular are just gutting.

    Warren Zevon - Keep Me in Your Heart

    Harvey Danger - Jack the Lion

  • What's your favorite Christmas movie, and why?

    Jump

  • Watch out for the icy patch!

    I don't even recall seeing it as a kid in the 80s, but I found it once I had kids and it's absolutely our favorite to watch as a family. In fact, now that the kids are teenagers, this is probably the only one that will draw them out of their rooms to watch together still.

  • You can install extensions right from the Chrome Web Store with Edge. I have uBlock Origin in Edge on my work PC.

  • what are some of the best purchases you've made ?

    Jump

  • Right. I never pull the wrong one anymore because fan=fan and light=light. I know it's a stupid minor thing, but it's great.
